One of them frequently misses on his glomming attempts. I have noticed inaccuracies in my other bots as well, and they never seem to ever fire directly at the...
Not exactly sure what you mean by "miss" (miss entirely?). The way the range register/interrupt work, they read positive values whenever they spot any part of...
... Well, my robots don't always completely miss. Sometimes they just miss when I'd rather them not, even when the enemy bot doesn't change direction, and...

Welcome back to RoboWar Matt!! Although the plagiarism policy in the game is, and always has been pretty firm, it was such a long long time ago, so I promise...
... Or perhaps it would be more exact to say some might still hold a grudge against your entries, but acknowledging that you erred shows you are a different ...
I am brand new to robowar (windows). Ihave done some coding- like BASIC way back in the early 80's, and some GML, the language that GameMaker uses. I'm looking...
The STACK is a storage space for data. Like a physical stack (e.g of papers), any new data that is put on the STACK goes on the TOP (a new page of paper gets...
Except recall doesn't really look at the 2nd value of the stack. It looks at the top value, which should be a variable with an apostrophe like aim' or look'...

Having too much data on the stack (too many pieces of paper on the pile). The stack has 100 spaces. When you try and put an instruction on the stack when it...
Another thing you might want to look out for is return addresses. Every time you use IF or IFE, a return address is pushed onto the stack. The same is true for...

So I was testing out my very first tournament entry today against the bots of T24... My groupmode code was this: groupmode: Groupmode JUMP I expected to score...
Well, complete pacifism is a valid group strategy (unlike solo). Other strategies can be measured against it as a nonzero baseline. The real test of...
